As many of you would know...we've had a hectic few weeks...but nowhere near as hectic as Grandma & Granddad...
The last fortnight started normally... coffee and toast on Sunday morning.. which as usual resulted in more peanut butter on the outside of their mouths than on the inside!
Claire & Daddy set off afterwards with the task of making cake-pops...which were surprisingly troublesome...but oh so good...
These were made in such a hurry, before daddy rushed off to the airport to fly home to Sydney for the week...
A week later...with grandma and granddad's new home setup, a tired daddy came home to a tired mummy and kids... to start yet another busy week!
Firstly was a gathering for Julie's birthday...
Here's our little techno-geek...first thing she asks for each morning... iPad...
On Saturday we headed of to brunch with Sienna and Jasmine (and parents).. here are some pictures which show our girls being themselves.
(PS you can click on the picture and it will open a larger version of it).
The brunch was quickly organised as the reality of leaving sets in... the Lagdaman family will be away in the US soon... so this was perhaps our last chance for a family gathering (for a while at least)...
The girls made sure they got lots of value for their play time...
Claire prepared the rest of the girls a nice lunch... (note the french hat)
Before taking her role as 'teacher' and explaining all the food types...
Sienna and Jasmine enjoyed their meal...
While Claire and Keira enjoyed some time on the swing...
Followed by Claire and Sienna...
Sienna and Claire have been friends for about as long as either of them could be!!!
And a couple of videos of the fun...
And the parents still haven't learnt to take group photo BEFORE the kids are tired...
After all the activities of the morning, and a brief sleep, it was time to go trick or treating... A group of families (8 households) all arranged to go door to door to allow the kids to experience a real halloween night...
Our girls got into the spirit, Claire as a "gun-witch'...and Keira as a devil, though daddy thinks she looks a little like the girl from Street Fighter...
Here's the girls in action
Sadly, even daddy got into the action (though barely)...
In total there were 15 little monster's of various degrees wondering around the condo...
Their screams of "trick or treat" could be heard up the lift shafts from the lower floors to the top...
Happy Halloween...
